Chapter 673: Jishui Soldiers
Chapter 673 Jishui Xiongbing
Chen Lei's voice came from behind "Madam".
Chen Kefu looked back and saw Li Xiuning's face pale and his hair scattered.
Li Xiuning walked in front of Chen Kefu, and Feng Wan on the side hurriedly saluted. Li Xiuning returned the salute, but suddenly found that under the armor was actually a beautiful woman, and then saw that she was standing so close to Chen Kefu. And there was not even a person around, just now Chen Lei was still behind him and didn't let him come.
His face suddenly froze, his face became a little paler, his body shook a few times, and he almost fell.
Looking at her appearance, Chen Kefu also understood what she was thinking. These days, for Li Xiuning, it is also a great joy and sorrow. Originally, her father and brothers finally agreed to join Chen Kefu in Mengjin, which made her extremely happy.
When she saw Chen Kefu again in Mengjin, the excitement and joy in her heart were indescribable. Although she is Li Valve's daughter, she is just an ordinary woman. At home, follow the father, marry the husband. Since the wedding with Chen Kefu, Chen Kefu has been her heaven. The parting of ways between the Li family and her husband made her miserable for a long time. Now that her husband and father and brothers have finally released their suspicions, this makes her, the woman caught in the middle, the happiest.
She was the happiest in the first days of Mengjin, although she knew that Chen Kefu later married several wives and concubines such as the young lady of the eldest grandson family and Princess Izumo, but she didn't care too much about that. For her, being able to be by her husband's side every day, and seeing her husband with her father and brothers, is satisfying.
But happiness comes and goes quickly. First Shimin died, then the eldest brother Jiancheng died, and now her father has been taken away, which makes her wash her face with tears all day long, her heart is like ashes, and her heart is in a trance. She had just heard from the maid that there would be a battle tonight, and told her to be careful. Only then did she realize that the sailor had already set off, and that he was going to raid Li Mi tonight. remembered that her husband told her that her father was robbed by Li Mi, so she hurriedly came to Chen Kefu and asked him to rescue her father. didn't expect to see him so close to another woman as soon as he came, and just let Chen Lei block himself from entering. When she thought of this, she couldn't help but think wildly, and she suffered from gains and losses.
Chen Kefu stepped forward and grabbed Li Xiuning, who was about to leave, and reached out to pull her loose hair to her ears. For Li Xiuning, he has always felt indebted. After all, this was the first woman he liked, and he used to really take her to heart and think about a happy life with her. It's just that time has changed, and the two of them are also affected by this era.
She is his wife, but she has borne too many grievances between him and the Li family.
And now, he has completely broken with the Li family, and several of her brothers have died in his own hands, and even her father will soon die in his own hands. This made him feel indebted every time he faced her. This is just a weak woman, although she seems to be very strong on the outside, but the grievances between the Li family and the Chen family still hurt her deeply. He knew that she had been trying to mend the cracks, but she didn't understand that she would never be able to change them.
Now that Chen Kefu has completely destroyed the Li family, he feels more and more indebted to Li Xiuning. If possible, he hopes to give her more compensation.
"Sanniang, you have reduced a lot. Did you eat today? I went to see you in the evening, and you happened to be asleep, so I didn't bother you. Chen Kefu said gently.
Li Xiuning turned her back, tears flowed out involuntarily, Chen Kefu pulled her over, stretched out his hand to wipe her tears, "Sanniang, you still have me, I will always be by your side." ”
Saying this, Li Xiuning's tears couldn't be stopped, falling like pearls with broken threads, "Chen Lang, the brothers of the concubine are all dead, and now there is only my father, you must help me save my father." ”…,
Chen Kefu gently stroked her back, "Don't worry, I will definitely save King Tang from Li Mi's hands." ”
After comforting her for a while, Li Xiuning's mood gradually eased, and Chen Kefu sent her back to the cabin to rest before returning to the deck.
"Your Highness, Li Yuan must die, if he doesn't die, Hedong will be difficult to peace." Feng Wan said.
Chen Kefu looked at the night sky and said flatly, "I will snatch Li Yuan back from Li Mi's hands, but maybe Li Mi has already killed him." ”
Feng Wan was stunned for a moment, and immediately nodded, "Your Highness is right, Li Mi is not a good person, King Tang was kidnapped by him, and it is very likely that he has already been poisoned by him." But no matter what, King Tang is always an important minister of the court, and he is also the father of Mrs. Li, whether he is dead or alive, we have to bring him back. At the banquet that day, Chen Kefu got the poisonous ring that Feng Wan stole from Li Shimin's hand, and used the poison in it to poison the wine of Li Yuan's father and son. It's a very secret thing, and only a few people know about it. And Feng Wan is also one of the people who knows, of course she understands the meaning of Chen Kefu's words.
Li Yuan was poisoned, and according to the result, he should probably be poisoned tomorrow. Li Jiancheng had already died, when Shen Luoyan was robbing the prisoner. Chen Kefu claimed that Li Jiancheng was killed by the thieves who robbed the camp, and Li Yuan also fell into the hands of the thieves, and also explained that the gang of thieves was sent by Li Mi. The reason why Chen Kefu did this was to let Li Yuan's father and son die at the hands of Li Mi, and completely eliminate future troubles.
Li Yuan only had two days left to live, and even if Li Mi rescued him, Chen Kefu would not have the slightest worry. On the contrary, it can forever prevent future troubles and completely blame Li Mi's death on Li Mi. killed Li Jiancheng before, but also to prevent his father and son from dying together at that time, so that the rest of the Li family could guess the truth of the matter.
"Your Highness." Chen Lei stepped forward quickly, "Urgent report from the Secret Service Division!" ”
Chen Kefu's heart moved, "Bring him over immediately." ”
In the dark night, a middle-aged man dressed in black followed Chen Lei over quickly.
"Your Highness, the latest information, Li Mi will shrink the troops and horses everywhere, 50,000 troops in Kim Yong, 50,000 troops in Yanshi, 50,000 troops in Baihuagu, 20,000 troops in Luokou Cangcheng, 10,000 troops in Hujiao Pass, 50,000 troops in Jindi Pass, and 120,000 troops in Luokou, and have urgently transferred troops to Xiangcheng, Yingchuan, and Xingyang. Intent on annihilating us in one fell swoop! ”
Chen Kefu listened quietly, but it was difficult to calm down in his heart. This war is very crucial and has a bearing on his overall plan for the future. He had already guessed some of Li Mi's possible arrangements before, although Li Mi had many soldiers, but because he deliberately let Fang Xuanzao go back, he broke his original ambush plan. Li Mi had to rearrange his troops, and although he had hundreds of thousands of troops in hand, it was difficult to mobilize them for a while. Even, had to divide troops to defend, just in case.
Now that he heard the report of the Secret Service Division, it was really not much with their speculation, and Chen Kefu suddenly had a lot of worries in his heart. For this plan, I have more and more confidence.
"Your Highness, Li Mi arranged it like this, although the strength of the ambush has been greatly weakened, but it is like a strong fortress, and it is not easy for us to deal with." Feng Wan said with some concern.
Chen Kefu waved his hand, "No, Li Mi's arrangement is exactly in the heart of this king." We have already prepared a few big gifts to give to Li Mi, and this is just right. As he spoke, he beckoned to Chen Lei, "Immediately act according to the original plan, release the pigeon to notify all parties, and immediately launch according to the original plan." ”
"Yes."
Feng Wan looked at Chen Kefu with some surprise, she didn't understand why he had such a good idea, in her opinion, this battle with Li Mi was extremely dangerous. can look at Chen Kefu's appearance, he has not yet fought, but he seems to have won the victory. …,
Chen Kefu's heart was boiling with blood and excitement, and when he saw Feng Wan's puzzled eyes, he smiled and reached out and patted her shoulder, "Miss Feng, just wait and watch the show, the show has already begun." ”
Feng Wan stood there stunned, watching Chen Kefu stride away, reaching out and touching the fragrant shoulder that Chen Kefu had just patted, her face was burning, and she stood there a little helpless for a while, not knowing whether to follow or not.
Jishui, originating from Taiyi Pond on Wangwu Mountain in Heyang County, Hedong, enters Henan from the east of the river, then enters Shandong, and finally reaches the sea. In ancient times, Jishui was a fairly famous river, and the Yellow River, the Yangtze River, the Huai River, and the four major rivers of Jiang, River, Huai, and Ji. The ancients called this kind of river with an independent source and can flow into the sea called it desecration, and the ancient emperors sacrificed to the five mountains and the four desecrations, including Jishui. In the Sui Dynasty, Jishui was the northern desecration.
Going up against the water, near the source, it is one of the eight Taihang gates. Jishui is connected with Yiguan, which is an ultra-long passage that leads to the east of the river in the north and connects Henan and Nantong to Shandong.
At this time, on the north bank of the Yellow River, in the reeds at the mouth of the Jishui River, a large number of ships were lurking secretly. The fleet did not fly the flag, nor did it paint the ship's number on the side of the ship like the Hebei Naval Division. Large and small, all kinds of ships gathered together, ranging from large flat-bottomed grain carriers with masts to clippers with small sails on one side. There are even many small fishing boats where fishermen fish.
At this moment, there were three or four hundred ships, large and small, all of them hidden in the reeds a few miles upstream of the estuary.
And right next to this estuary, there is an army of black crows.
The military flag was flat, and the drums of war were silent.
The bands of soldiers were all lying on the ground, and not a single one of them made a sound. This alone shows that this is a strong and disciplined army. What is particularly striking is that this army lurking here, although not as ordinary and tall as the soldiers in the northern army, looks a little thinner. But these soldiers are all determined, and they are all wearing two layers of armor.
And on everyone's side, there is also a stainless steel mallet head lance about two feet long.
The lurking elite soldiers, the double-layered battle armor, the more than two feet of the lance, and the fierce eyes all show that this is a division of a hundred battles
